Seatricity Oceanus 1
Oceanus 1 is Seatricity’s first generation wave energy device. In the simplest terms, a float travels up and down with the waves and operates a pump to pressurise sea water which is then piped ashore. Ideal sites for Oceanus deployments are those with 30 – 60 metre water depth 1-5 Km from the shore and with a wave resource greater than 10 kW/m.
